I love the gradually warming of the earth, Lill, with the sun gazing more deeply, and I can hear those snow crystals liquefying, the babbling stream and shifting pebbles. A ray of hope in this cold snap we’re having.

Love the idea of Spring steeping! As I read this I thought of all the many duties of nature expressed so well with your lovely mix of verbs. Thanks for the little glimpse of hope for warmer weather. I really needed that today.

Glad you enjoyed! We are still in the deep freeze and waiting for Spring to kick up her heels. This poem is from memories of our trip to Norway with their first taste of spring and snow melt and water trickles which would later become not just streams but wonderful waterfalls.

I love your poem, I am a musician myself and tried this kind of poem myself but just can’t. I have a website that supports all discipline of arts, I would love to have your work featured in my literature category. Visit my site, e-centralized.com, it’s new and plenty of room for improvements. But it will be great to feature your work. Thanks.
